Adventures of Zatoichi

Zatoichi, the blind swordsman and skilled masseuse, forms an unlikely bond with a young woman seeking her missing father, the village leader who has vanished. As he helps her pursue the truth behind the disappearance, Zatoichi becomes entangled with another young woman who is aiding her brother, a murderer who acted at roughly the same time and in the same place as the missing man was last seen.
